Sleep Donation
VINTAGE CLASSICS' AMERICAN GOTHIC SERIES
Spine-tingling, mind-altering and deliciously atmospheric, journey into the dark side of America with nine of its most uncanny classics.
An epidemic of insomnia has left America crippled with exhaustion.
Thankfully the Slumber Corps agency provides a lifeline, transfusing sleep to sufferers from healthy volunteers. Recruitment manager Trish Edgewater, whose sister Dori was one of the first victims of the disaster, has spent the last seven years enlisting new donors. But when she meets the mysterious Donor Y and Baby A - whose sleep can be universally accepted - her faith in the organisation and in her own motives begins to unravel.
Fully illustrated and featuring a brand-new 'Nightmare Appendix', this uncanny and prescient novella from the bestselling author of Swamplandia! will haunt your sleepless nights.

Sweat
From the author of Insomniac City 'who can tackle just about any subject in book form, and make you glad he did' (San Francisco Chronicle): a cultural, scientific, literary, and personal history of exercise
Exercise is our modern obsession, and we have the fancy workout gear and fads to prove it. Exercise - a form of physical activity distinct from sports, play, or athletics - was an ancient obsession, too, but as a chapter in human history, it's been largely overlooked. In Sweat, Bill Hayes runs, jogs, swims, spins, walks, bikes, boxes, lifts, sweats, and downward-dogs his way through the origins of different forms of exercise, chronicling how they have evolved over time, and dissecting the dynamics of human movement.
Hippocrates, Plato, Galen, Susan B. Anthony, Jack LaLanne, and Jane Fonda, among many others, make appearances in Sweat, but chief among the historical figures is Girolamo Mercuriale, a Renaissance-era Italian physician who aimed singlehandedly to revive the ancient Greek "art of exercising" through his 1569 book De arte gymnastica. In the pages of Sweat, Mercuriale and his illustrated treatise are vividly brought back to life. asHayes ties his own personal experience to the cultural and scientific history of exercise, from ancient times to the present day, he gives us a new way to understand its place in our lives in the 21st century.

A királynő koronázása
Brienna kezdi megszokni életét a csodás Maevana földjén az egykor kitagadott lord, David MacQuinn lányaként és a királynő tanácsosaként. Még hosszú út áll előtte, hogy beilleszkedjen, így egyelőre el kell nyomnia a sajgó vágyat, melyet nap mint nap érez szerelme iránt. Aodhan maga is elfoglalt: igyekszik helyreállítani elbukott háza hírnevét, bár gondolatait főként a gyönyörű Brienna és csókjának édes íze köti le. Azonban egy este egy rejtélyes kisfiú jelenik meg a kastélyában, és a dolgok új fordulatot vesznek. Eközben egyre közeleg a könyörtelen, ledöntött uralkodócsalád, a Lannonok tárgyalása, mely után a jogos királynő, Isolde végre felülhetne a trónra. Azonban a börtönbe vetett királynak, Gilroy-nak számos szövetségese van, akik bármit megtennének urukért. Így hát Briennáéknak újra össze kell fogniuk, még ha ez a küldetés az életükbe is kerülhet. És jobb, ha vigyáznak, ugyanis a szerelmes szívnél nincsen sérülékenyebb.

Flash Count Diary
Menopause hit Darcey Steinke hard. First came hot flushes. Then insomnia. Then depression. As she struggled to understand what was happening to her, she slammed up against a culture of silence and sexism. Some promoted hormone replacement therapy, others encouraged acceptance, but there was little that offered a path to understanding menopause in an engaged way.
Flash Count Diary is a powerful exploration into aspects of menopause that have rarely been written about. It is a deeply feminist book, honest about the intimations of mortality that menopause signals but also an argument for the ascendency, beauty and power of the post-reproductive years in women's lives.
Ház az égszínkék tengernél
Egy varázslatos sziget. Egy veszélyes feladat. Egy égető titok.
Linus Baker, a Mágikus Ifjakért Felelős Minisztérium munkatársa az agglegények csendes, magányos életét éli egy apró házban, egy kiállhatatlan macskával, az esős és szürke nagyvárosban. Feladata, hogy a kormány által fenntartott árvaházakban élő gyermekek jólétét felügyelje.
Egy nap berendeli a Rendkívül Magas Felső Vezetés, hogy életbevágóan fontos és szupertitkos küldetéssel bízza meg. El kell utaznia a Marsyas-szigeten működő árvaházba, ahol hat különleges gyermek lakik: egy gnóm, egy tündér, egy sárkánymadár, egy azonosíthatatlan, zöld paca, egy alakváltó törpespicc és a hatéves Antikrisztus. Linusnak el kell nyomnia magában a félelmeit, és meg kell állapítania, mennyire veszélyesek a gyermekek önmagukra, egymásra és a világra.
Az árvaház vezetője a szimpatikus és kissé rejtélyes Arthur Parnassus, aki mindent megtesz annak érdekében, hogy a védencei és a saját titkai biztonságban legyenek.
A ház az égszínkék tengernél elbűvölően bájos és humoros szerelmi történet. Ezenkívül mesterien mesél arról, hogy mennyire vagyunk foglyai az előítéleteinknek, valamint arról, hogy az ember a legváratlanabb pillanatokban találhatja meg a helyét a világban.

The Interior Silence
"Inspirational" - The Daily Mail
"Sarah Sands has written about stillness with an eloquence that fizzes with vitality and wit. This wonderful book charts a journey to some of the most beautiful and tranquil places on earth, and introduces us to people whose inner peace is a balm for our troubled times. I loved every page of it." - Nicholas Hytner
Suffering from information overload, unable to sleep, Sarah Sands, former editor of the BBC's Today programme, has tried many different strategies to de-stress... only to reject them because, as she says, all too often they threaten to become an exercise in self-absorption.
Inspired by the ruins of an ancient Cistercian abbey at the bottom of her Norfolk garden, she begins to research the lives of the monks who once resided there, and realises how much we may have to learn from monasticism.
Renouncing the world, monks and nuns have acquired a hidden knowledge of how to live: they labour, they learn and they acquire 'the interior silence'. This book is a quest for that hidden knowledge - a pilgrimage to ten monasteries round the world.
From a Coptic desert community in Egypt to a retreat in the Japanese mountains, we follow Sands as she identifies the common characteristics of monastic life and the wisdoms to be learned from them; and as she discovers, behind the cloistered walls, a clarity of mind and an unexpected capacity for solitude which enable her, after years of insomnia, to experience that elusive, dreamless sleep.

Proč nemůžeme spát?
Určitě tu větu znáte: "Když se pořádně nevyspíš, nebudeš zítra k ničemu." Z dobrého spánku, jenž má být sladkým odpočinkem, se stal strašák - když jej nedosáhneme, budeme v denních povinnostech selhávat. A tak se ve svých postelích převalujeme, počítáme hodiny, kupujeme čím dál sofistikovanější matrace a polykáme hypnotika, jejichž celosvětová spotřeba neustále stoupá. Sympaticky neokázalý, a přitom fundovaný výklad britského psychoanalytika Dariana Leadera odhaluje, že mnohé z našich požadavků na "zdravý spánek" jsou civilizační mýty. Prozrazuje, jak ovlivnila farmacie knižní trh, co se stalo s naším spánkem v moderní době, jak skutečně funguje usínání a proč se už nikdy nevyspíme tak jako dřív. Autor nepromlouvá pouze ke čtvrtině populace, která trpí insomnií, ale svým výkladem, plným odkazů na pop kulturu, literaturu, filmy, technologie, reklamu, politiku a média, oslovuje čtenáře se zájmem o to, jak společnost a civilizace mění naše mysli a těla.
